Strip brushes are some of the most versatile tools in modern industry — small in form, but essential in function. From sealing and guiding to cleaning, sorting, and protecting machinery, their adaptability makes them a staple across sectors such as agriculture, packaging, food processing, manufacturing, conveyors, electronics, and even architectural applications.

At Werner Brushware, strip brushes are one of our core strengths. With decades of technical know-how, precision equipment, and a deep understanding of industrial environments, we manufacture high-performance strip brushes tailored to specific applications — whether that’s gentle cleaning, aggressive abrasion, sealing against dust and debris, or managing product flow on production lines.

We also produces coiled strip brushes, a specialised variation ideal for cylindrical cleaning, machine rollers, and high-contact surface applications. This engineering capability allows us to support clients with both standard and fully customised solutions to meet the exact demands of their operation.

 In industry, they’re used for:

Sealing

The most common application.
Strip brushes form a flexible barrier that helps with:

• Airflow control
• Dust and debris prevention
• Light sealing
• Pest exclusion
• Weatherstripping
• Gap sealing on machinery, doors, conveyor systems, etc.

Cleaning & Sweeping

Their bristles can remove:

• Dust
• Debris
• Loose particles
• Powders
• Light contaminants

Used on conveyor lines, rollers, packaging equipment, food processing lines, and more.

Guiding & Controlling Movement

Strip brushes help:

• Guide delicate items (like eggs, fruit, glass, metal sheets)
• Control positioning on conveyors
• Cushion and slow movement without scratching
• Stabilize products during transfer
• Reduce vibration

Static Dissipation

With specialised filaments (e.g., conductive fibres), they can:

• Dissipate static charge
• Prevent sparks and improve safety in electronics or powder environments

Surface Finishing / Light Polishing

Some strip brushes (especially with abrasive filaments) are used for:

• Light deburring
• Surface refinement
• Cleaning welds
• Texturing finishes

Shielding & Safety

They can:

• Cover pinch points
• Prevent accidental contact with rotating equipment
• Block chips or sparks in machining environments

In short:

Strip brushes seal, clean, guide, protect and control.
That’s why they appear in everything from egg-packing lines and food facilities to CNC machines, escalators, garage doors, industrial conveyors, and even architecture.
